First it kicked me and all my contacts off, then when we were all signed back on wouldn't let us send messages and then finally kicked us off again.

Is anyone else getting this/Where are you geographically?

yea im getting this and im from Blackpool!

yea mine isn't working either. msn webmessenger works just about though.

Totally dead for me.

Same here, can't logon.

same msn is dead for me, ugh. lol facebook is going on and off for me too oh noes what's happening

yeah it took a poop on me too. I live in pennsylvania.

woot comes back up

Yeah, I've seen a lot of people signing in just right now.

It wouldn't be the first time MSN screws up, but this time it beats world records for real

Damn i just got back from a fun time at birmingham nia and i can't login either!

yea kept saying some crap about service not available on mine.

finally let me on a minute ago there but without any contact info.

then a stream of them sign in but it wont let me send anything.

of course the service status page is about as useful as a neon light flashing suit in a covert surveillance scenario.

LAME.

Oops, just crapped out here at 6:27PM atlantic time.

Dead for me too, Toronto, Canada here

Yep, dead here, noticed all my friends were offline which is odd and now it just kicked me off and wont sign back in.

Dead too, Buenos Aires, Argentina here

Dead Australasia too.

Just booted me and all my mates too...

Adium just told me that MSN is offline. I'm in Belgium. There will be some maintenance I reckon.

Croatia here, down for me too.

Apparently everything is fine at the moment, is this automatically changed or is it edited by someone?

This wouldn't be messenger 9 only issue would it ?

Wouldn't let me sign in at all, says service is down.

LOL @ Rob

That made me laugh, during this very sad time.

I finally just started having troubles with WLM this afternoon and noticed this topic.

Loved the link, Rob.

Down here in Talca, Chile.

Haha, loving the trombone!

Rob can you fix msn please ?

Im back on now and so seemingly is my contact list. Sad trombone moment over

Yeah - WLM is ill - there hasn't been an outage like this for a while now.
Service status still says "All systems are stable and running" though!

Working again, at least for me.

Dead here too.

It's working now.

just got back on

Up

Pidgin is currently saying it is unable to connect to the WLM service.

"The MSN servers are temporarily unavailable. Please wait and try again."

Started working now ..But I'm suspecting lagging.

Yay its back up - and now it's time for bed.

Internet life resumed

Mine is back up again as well.
